# CenterPoint Energy: Business Model & Revenue Engine



## Direct Answer

CenterPoint Energy reports revenue across 6 product and service lines in its fiscal 2025 Form 10-K. Retail Gas Sales is the largest, with $4.3 billion of revenue (46% of the total), followed by Electric Delivery at $4.1 billion (44%).

## How Does CenterPoint Energy Make Money?

No single line supplies a majority of revenue: the largest, Retail Gas Sales, is 46%, which spreads CenterPoint Energy's exposure across several demand drivers. Between fiscal 2024 and 2025, Wholesale Electric Sales grew fastest (+375.0%) and Gas Transportation and Processing slowest (+0.0%), so the revenue mix tilts toward Wholesale Electric Sales while that gap lasts.

| Product or service | FY2025 revenue | FY2024 revenue | Share of revenue | Change |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Retail Gas Sales | $4.3 billion | $3.8 billion | 45.6% | 11.2% |
| Electric Delivery | $4.1 billion | $4.0 billion | 43.9% | 3.7% |
| Retail Electric Sales | $736 million | $622 million | 7.9% | 18.3% |
| Energy Products or Services | $216 million | $206 million | 2.3% | 4.9% |
| Wholesale Electric Sales | $19 million | $4 million | 0.2% | 375.0% |
| Gas Transportation and Processing | $11 million | $11 million | 0.1% | 0.0% |

## What the Segment Figures Do Not Show

The rows above add up to 100% of CenterPoint Energy's reported revenue for fiscal 2025; the difference is intersegment eliminations, corporate revenue or items the company reports outside its segments. Segment definitions are management's choice and change when a company reorganizes, in which case it restates prior years in the next filing, so a multi-year comparison should use the figures from a single filing. Revenue shows where sales come from, not where profit or cash is earned: a small segment can carry most of the margin.

## Where These Numbers Come From

Every figure on this page is a value CenterPoint Energy reported in the segment note and revenue disclosures of its Form 10-K filed February 19, 2026 (accession 0001130310-26-000008), read from the SEC's Financial Statement Data Sets. The prior-year column is the comparative figure from that same filing, so it reflects any restatement for a change in segments. Category names are the company's own XBRL labels, lightly reformatted for reading.

Rows that only total other rows (for example a "Products" line beside the individual products) are left out so nothing is counted twice. This page is educational and describes reported history for fiscal 2025; it is not a forecast or a recommendation.
